The mainly left features are io redirection of started sub processes and sub 
process signal management. An exampe could be found on

some times ago I wrote a little helper class QPipe, which may help you. You 
can get this class from http://kde-cygwin.sf.net/snapshots/qpipe.tar.bz2. 

Additional I had worked a little on qprocess_win.cpp (env handling), but this 
needs some cleanup to be usefull. I will do this in the next 

I this doesn't help, ask again.
